What are some of your favorite foods and/or drinks? Anything (Healthy/Non-Healthy/Desserts/etc.) apply.
Here are some of mine (I am both a healthy/non-healthy eater depending, so I have included both):
1. French Fries (Depends of where they are from). But, in general they have always been a favorite.
2. Drinks like Stawberry Daqs., Berry Blends, mostly anything off the tropical line as well.
3. The Cheesy Breadsticks from Pizza Hut.
4. Citrus Fruits (Lemons etc., used for water/cooking)
5. Bottled Water (Yes, I actually like water as it's probably around 70%-90% of my daily intake). I have gotten to a point where I can tell the differences in water. Sad, I know.
6. Fillet Mignon/Prime Rib
7. Bakery Products (From Croissants to Donuts). Fresh/not packaged.
8. Sports Bar type appetizers (Cheese Sticks/Chicken Fingers/Onion Rings/etc.). Ones that come from places like Damons/Ruby Tuesdays/etc.
9. Breakfast in general (Hashbrowns/Scrambled Eggs/French Toast/Bacon/etc.)
10. Coconut Chicken/Coconut Shrimp
There's a lot more, but those were things off the top of my head.
P.S. Not a big vegetable lover, but I still eat them. More of a challenge.

1. Bread - I swear I could eat this for every meal and never want anything else. With cheese or with butter, it doesn't matter. Homemeade Biscuits, Sourdough, Baguette, Foccacia, the list goes on...

2. Cheese - yes, please. But for some strange reason I only seem to like American, Extremely mild Cheddar, Mozzarella, Parmesan, Asiago and Romano.

3. Chicken Breast - I eat it everyday and don't ever seem to get tired of it. You can fix it a bazillion different ways.

4. French Fries - I crave them so bad sometimes, right along side the greasiest Truck Stop Diner burger I can get. Combine items 2,4 & 7 together and I'm in heaven.

5. Spinach salads - Another thing I crave. It's funny... I wouldn't go near this veggie with a ten foot pole when I was younger. Then I went to a benefit dinner where the appetizer was a spinach salad. I was too polite not too eat it and I ended up loving it. I still don't eat a lot of the 'good' veggies, but I save a place for this one.

7. Hidden Valley Ranch - I would (and have) eat this on anything. I love freshly-made Ranch dressing (and not that crap that comes from any other brand but HV). I love it so much my salads look like soup!

8. Pastries = There are very few items in the Dessert category I don't like (except for Chocolate). I like a milk-chocolate chip cookie every now and then but I vastly prefer white chocolate. Blondies have replaced the Brownie in my book.

9. Stovetop Stuffing - I can't get enough of this stuff.

10. Mountain Dew - I love MD with a passion. It got me through college but I finally had to put a stop to my caffeine fixation when I was up to 4 liters a day (my BP & pulse were bad).

I still drink pop every day, but it's caffeine free ginger ale. It's my only real calorie vice in my day-to-day eating as I am trying to stick to 1800 calorie diet. I save most of the stuff on this list for when I go out, though I love a good Italian or French roll dripping with Cabot's fresh butter with dinner.

Favorite films of all time in no order1. Zodiac 2. Dawn of the Dead (1978) 3. The Good The Bad and The Ugly 4. Blade Runner 5. The Warriors 6. Dark Knight 7. The Godfather 8. Bullitt 9. Experiment in Terror 10. Raiders of the Lost...

Stone baked pizza - When it's done right, there's nothing better.
Hot, fresh doughnuts - Give me a dozen hot, glazed doughnuts and a gallon of milk and I'm all set.
Sushi - An aquired taste for sure. It's become my second favorite food. I can usually put down a good $30-40 worth of sushi in one sitting.
Fountain Coke - If you can find an old drugstore that makes fountain coke the old fashioned way, by all means pay them a visit. Makes bottled and canned sodas taste like crap.
My Mom's cubed steak and gravy - She tenderizes the steak so much it practically melts in your mouth. And the gravy? So good you'll think you've died and gone to heaven.
Hamburgers - It's hard to beat a good hamburger. Make it a little pink inside with a side of fries.
Chinese food - The spicier the better. General Tso chicken is my favorite.

You've got that right....I'll never buy ice cream again. This stuff is better than anything you can get at the supermarket. I've made the mint chocolate chip, vanilla, chocolate and went out on my own and made some pineapple.
The key indeed is the 8 egg yolks whisked with 9 oz of suger...that custard absolutely makes the goodness.

Try adding 1 heaping tablespoon of instant coffee or espresso to the vanilla mix. Best coffee ice cream I've ever had. I've made the vanilla, the chocolate (heaven on a spoon) and the coffee, plus his banana ice cream recipe from Going Bananas (not as many egg yolks in this).
Note: Before anyone starts getting the urge to play Food Police, the egg yolks are tempered and cooked to 160 degrees, which kills all manner of beasties that might be hanging around. The days of me eating raw eggs went out with Rocky II.

1- Steamed Blue Crabs - Baltimore style with Old Bay.
2- Oddly enough - Figgy Pudding, the real thing with the hard sauce. Thats some good shizzle!
3-Chili Dogs - with grated cheddar and raw onions
4-Beef on Wick - that's a roast beef sandwich on a Kimmelweck which are German Kaiser Buns a roll that has salt crystals and caraway seeds and is really just the best. Sort of a regional thing from Buffalo.
5-Pork Tamales - mmmmm
6-beef fajitas made with claude's fajita sauce
7- chocolate covered potato chips - used to get these from certain candy stores that I can't remember the name of up in the MN, ND area - awesome!!
8- coffee ice cream (gonna hafta try the above suggestion for homemade)
9- german food but specifically jagerschnitzel with Bratkartoflen (sp?)mmmmm
10- german beer, specifically Jever

Nope, that's the beauty of it. This type (I think Krups makes one too) uses a bowl that has a sealed hollow area between the inside and the outside (like a thermos) that is filled with a special liquid. After you freeze it for around 12-24 hours, you pop it in the machine and the liquid acts just like ice and rock salt, except a lot less messy and it doesn't melt as fast. Plus no cranking.
P.S. I just keep mine in the freezer at all time so it's always ready to make a batch.

Nope, most certainly grape. I distinctly remember my mother wouldn't let it in the house after that incident and Kool-Aid even thought of pulling the flavor. We still refer to any cult like behavior as "drinking the grape Kool-Aid" in my family.
